Chapter 547: A Headache Script (2-in-1)

[Unmodified Version]

But when I turned my head and thought about it, it seemed that this Tian Lu was also quite pitiful.

Although a lot of resources were invested in her by relying on her relationship, she didn't get much in the end.

Although those directors were forced to have a relationship with film and television dramas, or for some interests, they gave her a role, but it seems that the roles are not too heavy.

is either a supporting actress, and she comes out so many times in the audience, and they are all soy sauce, and even have fewer lines.

Either it's the kind of poor heroine with few scenes, the whole scene is a man's play, and her appearance is just an embellishment.

Judging from these film and television dramas that Han Li has watched, this girl's acting skills are indeed not very good.

But now that Yao Yuan has come to the door, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to get rid of.

You must know that Qianyi Pictures now accounts for 10% of their film and television post-production and special effects studios. And as a gradually growing film and television industry boss, Qianyi Pictures, together with its Qianyi Cinema Line, can be said to have occupied more than half of the entire domestic film market.

In addition, Qianyi Pictures and Qianyi Cinema also have a certain influence overseas. For example, Qianyi Pictures has its own cinema chains in Southeast Asia, South America and other places, and at the same time, it has also acquired some cinema shares in Europe and the United States.

Therefore, if Han Li wants to gain a foothold in the film and television industry and develop steadily, not only can they not offend Qianyi Pictures, but they must also try their best to make friends with them.

Fortunately, now they have a preliminary cooperation, because of this 10% share, the film and television post-production and special effects studio and Qianyi Pictures had a good cooperation on several film and television dramas last year.

And Qianyi Pictures has a high opinion of Han Li, their film and television post-production and special effects studio, and even intends to increase their shareholdings, but Han Li and their refusal.

However, this will not affect the relationship between the two sides, this year the two sides will further expand cooperation, only in the first half of the year to cooperate in seven or eight film and television dramas, accounting for more than half of the project in the film and television post-production and special effects studio.

Officially, because of such a close relationship, Yao Yuan would come out to chat with him so confidently, instead of sitting in the conference room.

So after thinking about it for a while, Han Li raised his head and smiled bitterly at Yao Yuan: "That's it, you let her audition, let's take a look first."

If it's okay, I'm willing to make appropriate concessions and let her take the female lead role. But if it's really miserable, then give it a female character. Well, the second and third women can be picked at will. ”

Yao Yuan wrinkled his forehead when he heard Han Li's words, but he still didn't give up, and wanted to fight for it again: "Actually, we can come up again in this investment, and the income can be appropriately reduced." ”

Han Li shook his head at this and said: "You should know that this drama is very important to me, and it is also very important for our entire big IP development plan, do you think I will affect our entire project for this money."

You guys are so bold, why don't you invest a little more and create a movie for her. ”

Yao Yuan smiled bitterly at this: "We had such an attempt, but in the end it failed. And with her current ability, she can't support a movie with a lot of investment.

What's more important is that if you don't encounter a good project, even if you act in any film and television drama, you may not be able to succeed.

But your project is different, and your own one has a certain influence. So after the news of the adaptation of the film and television drama came out, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Coupled with your momentum, it is difficult for this drama to become popular. For Tian Lu, what she lacks most now is popularity and a work that can make everyone remember her.

This is also the reason why we are optimistic about your drama, so we rushed over from thousands of miles away. ”

Han Li nodded when she heard this, and she could see that for Tian Lu, the people behind her were really painstaking.

So after thinking about it for a while, Han Li said to Yao Yuan: "I'd better meet her first, but if it's okay, I'll give it a chance." ”

Hearing Han Li's words, Yao Yuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief. But before he could say thank you, he heard Han Li say again: "If it's really mud that can't support the wall, then I'm sorry, I won't let go." ”

Seeing that Han Li's attitude was so resolute, Yao Yuan also gave up the idea of persuasion, so he nodded at him and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it immediately." How about tonight, I'll ask her out and let's have a meal together. ”

When Han Li heard Yao Yuan's words, he pointed his finger at him and scolded with a smile: "You don't come to this set, I don't know what you think, and I want to hype up this matter again."

Tomorrow, make an appointment at noon tomorrow, you let her come out, and I will call the director out to meet her. Ugly things ahead, once we make a decision, you can't dwell on it too much. ”

Where do you think of me Yao Yuan, don't worry, I will tell them. Yao Yuan assured him.

In this regard, Han Li nodded.

He was afraid that if it really didn't work at that time, this Tian Lu and her economic team would be entangled again, which was what he hated the most. That's why I got vaccinated in advance, so that I couldn't say it clearly when we met tomorrow.

After saying goodbye to Yao Yuan, Han Li did not return to the company, but came to an independent villa on the edge of the South Lake. This is the station of the entire crew in Anxi, and will be responsible for all matters of the entire crew in Anxi. At present, although the crew has not yet been officially formed, the preparatory work has already begun.

Han Li rushed here to meet with the director and several other editors here to discuss the content of the script of the play.

The director of this drama this time, Han Li did not choose those directors who have become famous, but picked out a new face from many applicants.

This person's name is Tong Yongjun, 28 years old this year, graduated from the directing department of the Southern California Film School in the United States, and has been involved in the filming and production of web dramas in NBC, CBS, Columbia and other companies, and has also participated in the shooting and production process of some Hollywood movies.

This is really a tomorrow in the old American film and television circle, unlike those who really show off their power in China and blindly show off their prestige.

But such a person has never had a good opportunity when he wants to turn his career to China. To put it simply, if you don't have a reputation, you won't be able to attract investment.

Even the domestic film and television circle, this kind of relationship and organizational model that relies on connections, made him want to go abroad again.

This time, I was also recommended, and I plan to come and give it a try. I didn't expect to have a pleasant conversation with Han Li, and the two sides also had a lot in common, so Han Li waved his hand and decided to use him as the director of this drama.

As for Han Li himself, in addition to serving as the chief screenwriter of this drama, he will also serve as the producer of this drama and be jointly responsible for the whole process of filming and production of this drama.

Mr. Han!

After seeing Han Li enter the house, several drama staff shouted at him. Mr. Han here is not only the general manager, but the chief screenwriter.

Well, I bought a burger and hot coffee, so let's take a break. Han Li gestured to everyone with the bag he was carrying.

Oh... Thank you, Mr. Han! The busy crowd cheered.

Yongjun, yours. Han Li handed the burger and coffee to a young man sitting at the long conference table.

Thank you. Tong Yongjun took the hamburger and coffee, and then said excitedly to Han Li while eating: "Come, you see, this is a few of our revised parts." ”

Oh? Han Li was very curious to take a script that had been flipped, and then looked down at the passages marked with yellow, green, orange and other markers.

And Tong Yongjun and several other screenwriters were eating hamburgers there while quietly watching Han Li.

After staying for more than ten minutes, Han Li finally put down the script. But he didn't speak, but thought about it with a frown.

After thinking for about five or six minutes, Han Li raised his head and said to Tong Yongjun, who was looking at him, "Don't you think this pace is too fast?" ”

Too fast, so that the whole story structure is more cohesive and more engaging? Tong Yongjun wondered at him.

Han Li shook his head and said, "The structure of the whole script is tighter, but don't you think that the pace is too fast, so you ignore a lot of details."

In addition, in addition to these frequent main plots, there are still those wonderful details described. And this version of the version you modified is more focused on the main story, speeding up the pace of the whole story, and ignoring these wonderful details.

To put it simply, the story is too dry and emotionless. So I think some details can be added appropriately, such as the emotional scenes of some characters, so as to increase the sense of substitution of this drama and truly introduce the audience into the storyline.

But we only have 24 episodes long, which is less than 1,000 minutes in total, and I am afraid that there is not enough time to add these details to such a short period of time.

Han Li shook his head when he heard Tong Yongjun's words and said, "No, I think-we can shoot first." As for whether you will use this after filming it in the future? Just wait for the later editing. But if you don't shoot in the early stage, and then make up the shots later, it will be more troublesome, and it will be time-consuming and laborious. ”

In that case, you can do it. Tong Yongjun nodded and said: "The main reason is that I am not very suitable for this kind of shooting and production in China, and I basically shoot one episode to make one episode abroad, and then broadcast another episode."

The whole link is very closely connected, so the requirements for the script are very high, and even in order to shorten the length of the story and speed up the pace of the plot, many episodes have been simplified, reducing a lot of details that are not compatible with the main plot. ”

Han Li nodded and smiled when he heard this: "Does a country have a national style, and this film and television circle is the same." The filming and production environment in China is different from Lao Mei's, and the audience watching the drama is also different.

Therefore, it is basically impossible and unreliable to directly copy the shooting and production process of European and American Hollywood.

Therefore, we must slowly try and summarize, in addition to absorbing their successful shooting and production experience, we must also adapt and change according to local conditions.

From this point of view, whether you have rich experience in the shooting and production of European and American film and television dramas, or those of us who have just stepped into this circle, we need to explore and try from scratch.

That's why I told you not to be afraid of failure and to try. ”

Hearing Han Li's words, everyone nodded. Indeed, if you want to shoot online dramas like those in Europe and the United States in China, you really need to explore and try, because so far they don't have any good cases and experiences to learn from. Even if a large number of European and American talents in later generations, especially a large number of old American film and television industry talents flowed into China, there are still not many high-quality online dramas.

So for Han Li, they can only start from scratch and grope forward step by step. It's easy to shoot a TV series, but to make a high-quality series that is popular with the audience, you need skills and ability.

You just said that you want to add some emotional lines, between the male and the female? Tong Yongjun said thoughtfully.

Hearing Tong Yongjun's words, Han Li shook his head and said: "It doesn't have to be between the first male and the first female, but it can also be between the first male and the second female, the first female and the second male, and even the first female and the third female."

But this is just an embellishment, as long as it feels a little bit, it can't be too obvious, otherwise it will lose that meaning, and it will even affect the rhythm of the whole story.

This point has to be handed over to a few of them to be responsible, after all, Lao Mei's emotional outlook and love outlook are different from those in China, and they still have to adapt measures to local conditions. ”

Hehehehe...... Hearing Han Li's words, everyone laughed.

Han Li glanced at everyone, and then said with a smile: "But you also have to pay attention, don't use the old-fashioned emotional routines of domestic TV dramas directly, and add a little innovation."

And to be contained, this is a non-action adventure drama, not those urban emotional dramas, so just embellish it a little, and don't go too far. ”

Seeing that everyone nodded, Han Li continued: "Although the script still needs to be polished, please work hard and try to speed up the progress." After all, now our casting has begun. Our actors will have to join the group in May at the latest, so we can't afford to have too much time to delay. ”

As far as the current progress is concerned, there should be no big problem.

Tong Yongjun said to Han Li: "But we still have to hurry up in this role, so far we haven't determined the actors, and even some of the main supporting roles have not been determined, which makes me more worried."

You must know that the actors' schedules are limited, and only when they are determined can they adjust their schedules, so as not to delay our filming progress. ”

Don't worry, I'll be watching this myself. And at present, there has been some progress in the main supporting roles, Lao Wu and they have selected a few, let's meet them when we go back, and we can settle it if we think it's good.

Han Li said to Tong Yongjun: "As for the hero and heroine, you know, this is the case in China, so I have to take another look."

Speaking of which, I'll tell you about it. Come out with me tomorrow at noon, and someone will have a treat for dinner. ”
